Fort save DC 27, initial 1d4 temporary Con damage, 1d4 temporary Int damage, secondary 1 permanent Con damage.Sweep (Ex): As a full-round action, the kylonoderm can sweep the area 15 feet ahead of it with its trunk.  Creatures in the area are knocked prone and take 1d10+6 points of damage unless they make a Reflex save (DC 20), in which case they take half damage.  Trample (Ex): As a standard action during its turn each round, the kylonoderm can literally run over an opponent at least one size category smaller than itself by moving through its space, dealing 2d10+18 points of bludgeoning damage.  Trampled opponents can attempt attacks of opportunity, but these incur a -4 penalty. If they do not make attacks of opportunity, trampled opponents can attempt Reflex saves for half damage (DC 32). Improved Grab (Ex): If the kylonoderm hits with its slam attack, can attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity.  Grabbed creatures can be attacked by the kylonoderm's stingers with a +4 circumstance penalty.[edit = added feats, made other minor changes - thanks, Frog Slime!]</blockquote>
